Want to connect with your western Montana open lands? Join us for events, workshops, and volunteering opportunities! This list will be updated throughout the year:
Meet us in Philipsburg to celebrate the season and our conservation successes in the Flint Creek Valley. We’ll host drinks and appetizers at the Philipsburg Opera House from 4pm-5:30pm. After, meet us for the Yule Night parade down Main Street and catch a Twinkie from the Five Valleys float! Questions? Contact Sophie at sophie@fvlt.org.
Join us and our friends at Run Wild Missoula for Tales from the Trails, a new, seasonal trail running series that shares the story about your favorite Missoula-area trails. As we meander through these community open spaces, we’ll pause along the way to hear the story behind the land: how it came to be protected, what it means for public access, and why open spaces like this matter to Missoula. This series is open to Run Wild Missoula members only. Come run, listen, and connect with the places that make Missoula wild! Register and learn more.
Five Valleys’ Stewardship Society party honors our conservation landowners, donors who have given $5,000 or more in their lifetime, and project partners. Members: look for your invitation to the 2026 gathering in January. Interested in learning more about our Stewardship Society? Contact our Philanthropy Director, Ramey Kodadek, at ramey@fvlt.org.
Join us for our largest event of the year: our 30th(!) Annual Banquet & Auction. This event brings together supporters and friends from across western Montana to celebrate and support private land conservation. Tickets will go on sale in spring 2026. Questions? Contact Sophie at sophie@fvlt.org.
